Snow is around the corner! A Winter Wonderland Manicure

Hello from Salt Lake City! Today I drove from Cheyene, WY to Salt Lake City, UT and on the drive saw mountains that were already filled with snow! That gave me the idea to feature a snowflake manicure in anticipation of Winter and the snow that is around the corner (for most of us anyway). I haven't purchased the Konad snowflake plates yet so I used my BM14 image plate from Bundle Monster for this one. Check the cut to see the finishing touches on my winter wonderland manicure.
I started with two coats of Piggy Polish in Blue Me A Kiss which is one of my favorite baby blue polishes!

Next I added 1-2 blue snowflakes to each nail using Bundle Monsters BM14 Image Plate and Konad Special Polish in Blue.

After the blue snowflakes were added on I decided to stamp an additional white snowflake to each nail to add some color. (I would of liked to stamped a third snowflake on the nail using Konad Special Polish in Silver, but did not have it with me)

Before I brushed the nail with Sally Hansen's Insta Dry Top Coat I added two dots Wet n Wild's Break the Ice in the middle of each snowflake to add a sparkle. And my finished winter wonderland manicure looks like this:
